One of the leading student art competitions in the United States, this competition is open to any style of figurative paintings, drawings, and original printmaking created by undergraduate and graduate art students.

From over 600 submissions reviewed by our panel of Regional Jurors from educational institutions across the US, 40 students artists were chosen as exhibition finalists from curators Alex Gartenfeld of ICA Miami, independent curator, Claudia Gould, Jonathan Rider from the FLAG Art Foundation, and independent curator, John Yau. The exhibition will go on view in November at the New York Academy of Art.
